114 Symposium--Advances In Soil and Vadose Zone Hydrology: The Contributions of Glendon Gee: I

Oral Session
S01 Soil Physics Understanding of soil and vadose zone hydrology, especially recharge, has advanced significantly during the past 40 years because of Dr. Glendon Gee. This symposium is organized to recognize how his career influenced research to characterize soil hydraulic properties and recharge rates, using approaches ranging from laboratory devices to lysimetry. A primary goal is to highlight recent advances and future needs in recharge research. We strongly encourage early career scientists and students who can share their results and show how the work by Gee and his colleagues have guided and/or influenced new thinking in this important area of soil hydrology.
